Hello Felix, A loose radiator hose clamp can cause an "open" system. Meaning the siphon effect is lost and the coolant does not get sucked back into the cooling system during cool down. A loose or defective radiator cap will act the same.

Step 1
Drive your Ford Taurus
up a set of ramps onto a pair of jack stands, if it is a 1996 model or
newer. Remove the lower splash shields. For 1986 through 1995 models,
you can remove all necessary components from above.

Step 2
Begin by disconnecting the negative battery terminal and
draining the radiator into a transportable container. Open the plastic
draincock on the lower rear of the radiator and crack the radiator cap.

Step 3
Remove the overflow tube from the coolant recovery bottle and
disconnect it from the radiator. On SHO model engines, remove the
recovery bottle as well. Next unscrew the shroud and remove it from the
retaining clips. Disconnect the wires to the fan motor, and remove the
fan assembly and shroud in one piece.

Step 4
Squeeze the hose clamp ends together on the radiator side,
and remove the upper and lower hoses. For automatic transaxle models,
use either the custom Ford disconnect tool T82L-9500-AH or two crescent
wrenches to remove the transmission coolant lines.

Step 5
Disconnect the radiator supports. 1986 through 1992 models
will have two upper retaining screws for 3.0 liter and SHO engines. 3.8
liter engines will have two driver's side hex nuts and two passenger
side screws. All other models have either the upper screws or the
combination of right hand hex nuts and left hand screws.

Step 6
Tilt the radiator backwards toward the engine and lift it
out. Fit the new radiator into the support and replace the support
screws and nuts. Reattach the hoses and wires in reverse order.

Step 7
Flush the new radiator with either water or a commercial
flush treatment. Connect your battery terminals and replace the coolant
and let the engine idle for 5 to 10 minutes with the heater on and the
radiator cap removed. Top off the coolant as necessary.

Thank you,Lee

my recommendation is to go to autozone.com, here you can access there free manuals online, print your procedures and have step by step instructions. you will have to sign up and provide the information about your vehicle, the cost is free. I have used this several times, Good Luck!

lift hood and then unbolt the headlight from the radiator support or the metal bar running along in front of the radiator!! If you dont see the metal bar then just pull the plastic out of the way and then you should be able to see the bolts and then remove the headlight and dont forget to unplug the bulb from the headlight!!

Remove the rad support cover, remove the electric cooling fan and shroud, disconnect the tranny cooler lines, drain the cooling system, remove the upper and lower hoses, remove the rad brackets on top of the rad (one on each side), have someone hold the AC core out of the way and carefully slide the radiator up and out
